Math Work Stations Storage

Here are a few pictures showing how I store my Math Work Stations.  This was the easiest way I could think of that took up the least amount of room; considering we had Literacy Work Stations already going, Math Work Stations needed to be portable.

Math Work Stations-Patterns

I switched out my Math Work Stations (available for sale here) and updated them from Sorting to Patterning.  I took several pictures and wanted to include them:

The children will be completing the patterns with Unifix cubes.  I drew the patterns on sentence strips with markers and just drew squares.

Manipulatives Work Station-the children will be completing [...]

Math Work Stations

We started our Math Work Stations today and I thought I would share some pictures of them for you.  Don’t forget that you can purchase the entire year’s worth of Math Work Station ideas over on my Kristen’s Kindergarten Store blog.

Classroom Photos 2009-2010, Long Post! :)

I charged my batteries in the camera and took some pictures.  I’ll take you on a tour and you can also check out my photos from last year here to see the differences.
Everything is mostly in the same place, but a few things were changed.  First, I’ll start with some general views:

This is a look [...]

The Grouchy Ladybug

We began our study of insects/bugs by reading The Grouchy Ladybug by Eric Carle.  After taking a picture walk and reading it aloud to the children, we discussed the clocks that are pictured on most of the pages.  The children learned that we would be learning about telling time and addition (with ladybug spots) this [...]

Lucky Charms Graphing

Here are the pictures–a little bit late…
I made the graphing sheet and sorting sheet MANY years ago and we always end up having to scribble out some picture of a marshmallow and adding whatever the new “special” marshmallow is for that year.  I can’t find it yet (still looking on my computer) so when I [...]

Shake The Beans

Today, during our Math time, I introduced Shake the Beans (3).  I like to introduce it as close to Dr. Seuss Day as I can because I use red and white for my colors.  I don’t know where this game came from, where it got its start, but I just love it and we will [...]

Graphing/Sorting Candy Hearts

Here are two sheets I used today with my students to sort and graph candy hearts.  I also have them pattern with the hearts and find other ways to sort than by color (phrase, icon, etc.)  Click on them once and then when that image pops up, click again to make it actual size.
Enjoy!

There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie (day#3)

Here are the pictures I promised!  We used the Little Old Lady props to tell the story together today instead of reading the book.  We also used our pointer to point and read our Predictable Chart, ” I know an old lady who swallowed a…”

Here is the milkweed we planted–pre planting of course!
